Mineral creek? Yeah, I've read Id want to avoid that. But there are two easier ways down.

Can't speak to the other 2 ways, but I assume Silverton was easiest for 'normal' cars. Since it was a consistent choice based on the vehicle we had.

But also lots of locals and especially the lodges and small b&b places will rent you a jeep for the day/stay. I'd ask whoever you plan on staying with if they do that.

Such a great area- I'm trying to talk my wife into going soon now that the kids are out of diapers, but she's more destination than roadtrip type.
